Running 14.3-STABLE right now. Intel iwlwifi driver with an Intel AX210 card giving me full 250/40 Mbps (the maximum of my DSL line) via WiFi :)
Random connection issues, that I had with -RELEASE are solved in the current -STABLE 🙂
5Ghz, 802.11ac with 80Mhz wide channel...
We're making fast progress with FreeBSD on the modern desktop 🙂

Well, this was a surprise. Decided to run a simple LAN ping test between two of my access points, and the results were not what I expected.
Contender 1: The "mighty" Ubiquiti UniFi AC Lite
Contender 2: The tiny MikroTik mAP Lite
The winner? By a long shot, the MikroTik! It showed much better stability and lower latency.
The Stats:
- MikroTik: Avg 8.2ms / Jitter 10ms
- Ubiquiti: Avg 15.4ms / Jitter 32.1ms
Goes to show that size isn't everything in the world of networking.

At #Zürich #Zurich airport #ZRH apparently they require a boarding pass OR your passport just to connect to the so called "free WiFi".
Passport data just to use a #WiFi? What is next? ID check to post something on Instagram?
Come on, a WiFi is a commodity like a power socket.
The whole useless infrastructure with those kiosks, connection to boarding pass validators and the printer to print out vouchers - and this in 2025.

After being kneecapped by a #patents troll years ago, #Mozilla Location Services, the only somewhat trusted (non-Google/Apple) "Wi-Fi positioning system" (geolocation based on triangulating collected #WiFi SSIDs), is now shutting down: github.com/mozilla/ichnaea/iss…
MLS was how #GeoClue could get a meters-accurate location without a #GPS receiver / sky line-of-sight.
It was used by many #GNOME / #KDE apps to get instantaneous neighborhood-level location (for maps, local weather…) on #Linux laptops.
The accuracy of Mozilla Location Service (MLS) has steadily declined. With no plans to restart the stumbler program or increase investments to MLS we have made the decision to retire the service. I...GitHub
With #LibreOffice now able to include #QRCode directly, it's easy to create #WiFi connection posters!

J'ai acheté deux nouvelles prises CPL pour remplacer mes veilles Netgear qui avaient un débit assez faible.J'ai pris des Devolo dLAN 1200+ Wifi et effectivement, le débit est au rendez-vous.Uweb.archive.org
